I wonder what SAI will do about this? These are not supposed to sold to the general public. It's not even supposed to be obtainable without proof of damage to the original scoop and then the original has to be returned to them first before getting a new one - excluding dealerships. This is also the 2nd scoop (first released "fix") as the front two rivet holes are empty to accept the longer screws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stump_breaker Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 Stolen property, or someone from the stealership got a hold of one? I don't know. All I do know is when I went though my ordeal of scoop issues and replaced it myself, I was told the above was their policy to ensure exclusivity.

IASHELBYGT Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 I don't know. All I do know is when I went though my ordeal of scoop issues and replaced it myself, I was told the above was their policy to ensure exclusivity. Stump, how about if the owner of the car got the GTH hood like i did? Wouldn't the stock hood be his own property to do what he wanted with? John told me that when he ships back my stock hood to me that the hood and scoop will be shipped separatly because of an issue with the hood w/scoop not fitting in their shipping boxes without the scoop getting damaged. I don't plan to sell my scoop. I thought I would send it in and have Carroll autograph it, but If I wanted to sell it why couldn't I, it's mine?

ilmor Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 Obviously, Shelby can't stop any SGT owners from removing their scoops and selling them. I imagine that there will be some owners who will install other aftermarket scoops or hoods, and then sell the SGT scoops. If this one wasn't so much $$ I would buy it to hang in my garage.

IDK how that would work since I can't afford one. :D I guess if he already had the hood and scoop in his posession and then ordered the new hood and did a self install.... I just know what I was told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know what I was told. Yeah, but even then not sure it makes sense. You can never get it back to stock condition and you're left with a hood with holes. Why not sell the whole hood? Why keep the hood at all in your scenario. I can see selling the whole hood for $600-$800 rather than just the scoop. But people do the silliest things. :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a part# or other identifying mark on the underside of the scoop that would indicate it is an original Shelby part? (Of course that can aslo be duplicated, depending on the detail of the cloned part). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
